FIVE CENT COTTON AND NO TENANTS THAT IS OUTLOOK SCHAUB SEE! FROM UNCONTROLLED CROP AND COTTON PICKER. , The cotton picking machine invented by the Rust Brothers iii Texas, or e machine like it, will eventually wipe oat the tenant termer system nr the South I. O. Schaub, State Colley dear nnid head of the extension service in this state, said in Shelby Last week, the Cleveland Star reports. “I haven’ll been able to study this particular machine,” he said. "Hut they say it will work. Anyway, it’s inevitable thac some day soon,such a machine will work. __ That will mean little or no employment for the 70, 000 cotton, farm tenants in this state. “What’s to become of these people ? WeBl, I don’t know. That’s a prob lem that has teen faced and met every time a new machine was ever invent ed, from the cotton gin <5n up.” He touched briefly on the processing tax in his speech, but amplified his ide on the subsequent interview. “It would simply mean the produc tion next year of 15,000,000 bales; and eventually the destruction of the en tire AAA program. As I see it—of course, from the termer’s viewpoint —the processing tax is fair. No mills pay more tax than another. And Jap anese imports: I can’t see the threat in that. They pay the tax too, at the port of entry. “And answer me this: Did you ever hear if any one refusing to purchase goods Because oH the tax? On the con trary, the tax, by boosting the farm er’s income, has made it possible for him to t|uy more. The farmer always does purchase more cotton goods than anyone else. anywhere. “I can predict what would happen if the processing tax were removed, and production control were abandon ed, for nine out ot! ten inquiries at my office now ask that they be allowed to plant more acreage. With no re {.traint they’d plant every available fbot of ground. “I Iblieve controlled production, of some kind, is here to stay. “Apparently, the fight against the tax originated and is being led by dis gruntled New Kngland manufacturers who are jealous of the southern wage differential. Bu* with their advant age in freight rates and with the cost of living, so much lower here. I can’t see that argument either.” Later he told the 'farm agent and the Cleveland , County Commiss ioners that he highly, approved the homested plan, as to Quality of land and location, but suggested that they tty to create some kind of industry jjbere. The pursuit S)t agriculture alone, he thought, Would not Lie enough t$ support the many families jptended to be quartered "there. Cull Poultry Flocks To Increase Profts Ther high price of eggs and feed this spring has complicated the problem of culling the poultry flock. While egg prices eontlrvue high, many poultrymen will wish to keep in their flocks as many layers as possible, aaid Roy S. Dearstyne, head «£ the State College Poultry department. But unless they are careful, he add ed, they may keep in their flock » number of birds whioh are not pro/it alle, in view of tho present price of, feed. t I The flocks should Ik watched close ly, he continued, for the egg produc tion of some birds will slump rapidly in May, and the low producers should be cif.led without delay.' Birds going out of production in •May ar June are seldom good pros pects for rarrying over until the next laying year. Yvnen, tneir laying mwv birds show a loss of color in the comb, | which Kecomea dry and shriveled. The vent no longer appears loose and moist, the abdomen becomes hard, and the birds loose their alert appearance. Broody Uirds at this season are also poor prospects, Deanityne,added. One broody spell will follow another, with a result that egg production falls oflf.! ■Since the breeding season is over, he went on, there is no place in the ftock for males. Without males, the flock will produce infertile eggs which are of greater value from a market ing standpoint. I , Devitalized males, or males which do riot produce offsprings with hfeavy egg* producing possibilities, are not worth carrying through the summer, and should lb culled out.

Sol re — Nose Drops Stanly Starts Plan j For Raising Mules i Stanly county [farmers believe that the coninued buying of horses and mules from other sections to satisfy local demands is a weak spot in North Carolina’s agriculture. "Thousands of dollars are goig out of this county every year for a pro-, duct that can and should be raised on our farms,” says John W. Artzz, Stan ley county agent. “This condition can be gradually remedied by every landowner replen ishing his stock when necessary with a good brood mare purchased from local dealers, and breeding her to a stallion or Jack, Lbth of which are available locally. i | “A program of this kind, followed populate our farms with work an populate our 'farms with w ork ani mals, supplying both local and outside demands. Not only would this save our farmers much money, but in | cases it would give them opportunity to increase their cash incomes by sell ing animate. ( “Over most of the state, with its abundance of com and oats, iespedeza any^ood summer pasture, the condi tions for raising horses and mules are most ideal. The opportunity of in creasing the farm income from this source should not he neglected. “The odd folks, in thiB county say that their fathers managed to raise their horses and paules without diffi culty, but a colt trotting along <by its mother is an exceedingly rare sight nowadays. “Here In Stanly county, however, we hope to have) our local colt producton raised to a much higher level within the next few 'years.” „ i _ Supply of Roughage i . ?• . ' Decreases Dairy Costs An adequate supply of good rough age is recommended for decreasing the cost of feeding dairy cows and increas ing their milk and cream production. I Cows fed liberally on roughage such as lespedeza, alfalfa, clover or soy bean silage will give a good milk flow with only a limited amount of grain in'their) ration, says John Arey exten sion dairyman at State College. _ To insure % sufficient supply of roughage iior the summer and winter, /dairymen should plan to produce enough hay and silage to give each animal all it! needs, Arey. adds. | Allout 1 1-2 ton of legume hay and three tons of silage should be provided for each average-size.cow during the winter. If no silage is available the amount of legume hay should be in creased to 21-28 tons, Arey says. A combination of silage'and hay is preferable to hay alone, he continues, since silage furnishes a succulent ra tion. which is needed in winter. Also, a large quantity of sQage can be.pro duced on a small! acreage. * dhe acre of good com or sorghum will supply enough silage to feed three cows dor sir-months. / The trench silo is so inexpensive and valuable that no farmer owning as many as four mature cows can af ford to be without one, Arey points 'out. With such a silo, the fanner can store away an ahlunadnt supply of si lage for the winter with comparatively little/ expense. | Plans for constructing! trench silos may be obtained writhout charge from county agents or the dairy extension office at State College. Execution To Be By Gas In Future LEGISLATURE ADOPTS THAT, MEASURE THOUGH PRESENT CROWD WILL BE ELEC ROCUTED. The doom c>j the twenty-five old elec trie chair at the Central Prison was sealed Wednesday, May 1st, when the Senate voted unanimously to substi tute lethal gas as the method of carry ng out (hed ehah penalty imposed in capital cases. Not a single dissent ing voice was lifted not a vote cast against the measure, which already had passed the House. The senate, however, did amend the bill, introduce/ by Representative Charles A. Peterson, Mitchell county physician and popular member of the Republican delegation in the House, ro make sure Chat the men now under sentence of death, those convicted be tween now and July 1st and those con victed after that date, would be sub ject to the old penalty of death by electricity. Concurrence by the House, which passed the bill without opposition, will mean that after June 30 of this year | the form of sentence of death will be changed to substitute the words “die [ by the administration ct! lethal gas,” j for the words, “die by electrocution.” : Many a Friend Recommends BLACK-DRAUGHT People who have taken Black Draught naturally are enthusiastic about It because of the refreshing relief It has brought them. No won ' der they urge others to try ltl . . . Mia. Joe Q. Roberts, of Portersvllle, Ala., writes: “A friend recommended Black-Draught to me a long time wo, and It hu pror.il lu worth to m«. Black-Draught la food for constipation. I find that taking Blaok-Draught Pr*”n“ the bilious headaches which I ueed to .Bara." ... A purely vegetable medlolna Constipation, biliousness More Electrocutions „ However, there?, will continue to be electrocutions for possibly more than a year after the sentence is changed and there may be a period in which the old arid new forms of putting men to death will overlap so that the state might on the same day take the life of one man by electrocution and that of another by the administration of lethal gar This is because of the fact that there are now'25 men on Death Row at the Central Prison and more are likely to came before July 1. Arid it is within the range of possibility that even others night be sentenced after July 1 for drmes committed prior to that date. Ail of these men would suffer death by electrocution and as, not infrequently, men remain on Death Row for a year prior to going to the death chamber, it is likely that the electric chair will he well on its 27th year before it is put out of comrns son for good. I ~ ‘ Claimed 150 Victims. £h its 25 years cU gruesome service, the electric chair has taken the lives of 150 men, arid not a single woman, although four have lived within its shadows until their sentences were commuted by merciful governors. Last year, surpassing all previous records, tne chair claimed the lives of 20 men. Tyice thfee men paid with their lives pn a single day for capital ermes. . 'One group was composed oi negroes, who killed a white filling station operator in a hold up in Samp son county; the other group was com posed of a father, son and son-n-law, who all went to death far the killing of a bank cashier in Alexander county. A fourth man had paid the supreme penalty for the same crime earlier ir the year. The chair claimed its first life on March 9, 1910 when A*ilter Marri son, a negro from Sampson count was electrocuted for murder. However, the abolition of hanging and the sub stitution of the chair had been author ized by the General Assembly of 1909, but some difficulty had been experi enced in getting chair Installed and functioning properly. Used In Three States. The new method, clamed by its sponsors to be more humane than elec trocution, originated in the far West, and North Carolina is the iffrst state east of the Mssissippie to turn to it. Three Western States, Nevada, where it originated in Arizona and Colons do, use gas. Cyanide gas, believed by scientists to be the world’s most deadly gas, is used & administering the death penal ty. The prisoner is strapped in a chair in death ceH, cyande eggs are dropped into si sulphuric acid solution in a jar suspended above him, the heavy gas falls and one deep inhala tion is sufficient to cause death. The 1 gas is odorless and so swift in its ac ton, that there can be no suffering, scientists say. NOTICE TO ‘THE DEPOSITORS AND CREDITORS OF THE PEO PLES BANK OP SANFORD, SAN FORD, NORTH CAROLINA.
